Hello I’m from Holland and I have a Corsa B X1.6XE and want to change something at the engine to get more power in the higher revs! At the moment I have 156PS at 6800rpm and 172NM at 4000RPM on the Mantzel Rolling Bank.
X1.6XE enlarged to 1620cc
Mantzel Powerbox
Mantzel chip
Mantzel 4mm bigger Throttle plate
264 degrees Schrick Cams
Power Boost Valve 3,2 bar
Ported Cylinderhead
4-2-1 Lexmaul Exhaust
Lightened Flywheel 6kg
Supersprint cat
Group A from Catalysator
Twister Filter (Green Air)
I’m thinking about a 4-1 exhaust because I want more power in the higher revs. And maybe I want some cam pulleys, did somebody knom how many power it gives? Advice and tipps are welcome

The problem with fitting pullies when the engine is running standard management is.... well you cant really, the exhauts cam pulley has pick ups for the cam shaft position sensor and the car wont run without it, vernier pullies dont have ths pick up so you need to run stand alone management like omex, dta, go-tech or emerald. the 4-1 will gain you power but not noticable over the lexmaul you have on there. the next step for you is throttle bodies really then pocketed pstons and 288 cams.

I have 1000 euro in December to change some mods.
Throttle bodies is a good idea, but it's more than 1000 euro

the car will run without the camshaft sensor it defaults to the crankshaft sensor...
the lug on my exhaust cam was broken for months...
after all them modz and you want more power then there only one way to go and thats TB's(this is if you insist on keep the x16)
